The software project I am working on are turning out to be 3-4 day projects so I will have to backfill. In the mean time I made this frame for an anamatronic head.
Day 18, Thing 18, Framework for Animatronic head.

Although this post is many years old, since you are still active here I was wondering if you could tell me what kind of mesh you used for this project. I want to build a framework for a puppet head but a search for mesh on hardware sites doesn’t give me the options I’m looking for. Also, what kind of metal braces are you using. Thanks for any feedback.

The mesh is actually used for sculpture. So the best place to look for it would be in an art store.

The frame is actually made from hobby brass.
